Yet another “overnight” success 🤪 Looking forward to reading this book. I’ve been watching and learning from @SahilBloom since waaay back when. His timeline is proof that action + intention is indomitable.

An important reflection: On May 12, 2020, I wrote my first tweet to an audience of 500 followers. This week, I published a book and its messages reached millions around the world. Reminder: You can just do things.

The AI industry's impact on website infrastructure costs is evolving into a two-pronged challenge: First, websites bore the computational burden of AI companies crawling and training on their data. Now, a second wave of costs is emerging as AI agents actively browse websites in real-time to answer user queries. This creates repeated, high-frequency traffic that strains server resources.

@Waverider744 @TheRealRhllor @elonmusk @DOGE Not a deflection. You can’t be so extremist about one amendment while being okay with obviously constitutionally-proscribed conduct.

@Waverider744 @TheRealRhllor @elonmusk @DOGE That’s… not the point at all. And if you can’t see that, well, I appreciate the beautiful bow on my point.

This is one of the most insightful (for me) posts I’ve read here. It’s interesting watching the new era understanding unfold at the different layers. Both Visa & MC asked me to speak at open banking forums last year, along with transitioning to token-only futures, signaling the increasing value of data rather than raw volume. But this was a missing context for me.

@glenn_tunes My Norwegian exchange student in the 90s taught me a phrase to yell at our shitty soccer refs: “Stikke en elefant opp i rumpa!” Had no idea it was metaphorical prophecy.
